Default Non-smoker's box

Hi - can anyone with the non-smoker's box please do the rest of us the favor of posting some decent sized pictures of what it looks like installed? I'm curious.

Thanks lots,

It looks just like the smoker's box, only the top opening is a little larger. The only big difference is that the inside is lined with a fuzzy surface instead of the metal. Visually it's very hard to tell the difference between the two.

It comes with a sticker for your door that reads No Smoking


It doesnt have the thing to extinguish your cig butt

Just a nice felt box ( Can I say that )

It is great it holds my Treo 700 perfect ( cell phone )

I also have the trash box also ( ecru )

Gee-Bee

Oh, yes, I forgot about the little sticker that says "No Smoking."

I had 3 reactions to that:

1. Who smokes in a car anyway?

2. It's too small to read.

3. The print is the same color as the maple wood.

4. Who wants a No Smoking sign in the car?

5. That was 4, not 3.

I think prex was asking if you guys could take some decent pics of the non-smoker's box and post them here.

I think you are right, and when I get some free time I'll try to take a picture of the black hole in my ashtray.

The point of many of the above posts is that it looks pretty much the same, it's just a little larger and has a fuzzy inside.

Someone that concerned about the look of the ashtray should probably stay away from modifications altogether.

I bought it sight unseen because I knew it would accommodate a larger cell phone than the original, as noted above. For crying out loud, how much does it cost?

Read where some have done a modification to the ashtray to either put their cell phone there or control for satellite radio. How do you do the modifications? Mine looks like a solid piece of black plastic and the lighter.

I just got it last week from Carson Toyota (board sponsor) for $32 shipped. As stated from fellow CL members, the opening's bigger (vertically) & has a soft & fuzzy carpet lining. Let me know if you need me to post pics of both side-by-side. I got it b/c the opening's bigger & doesn't scratch my cell phone..."That's hot!"

Dan,
Can you post the part number for it (if you still have it)? I called my dealer's parts department and they had no idea what I was talking about--only one ash tray showed up in their computer.

It's a jdm.
You won't find it at any Lexus dealer.

Order it here. http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=27

Does anyone know where this can still be purchased? The link no longer worked. The previous owner of my car melted the plastic in my car ashtray somehow and I would love to find one of these.

I saw some on ebay and PartMyRide. You might also check Lexus South Atlanta and MyLParts.
